520 |a This courseware evaluation rates the Design Your Own Home program developed by Avant-Garde Publishing Company. (The program--not contained in this document--uses standard architectural scales and 126 shapes to allow creation of structural floorplans and sideviews.) Part A describes the program in terms of subject area and hardware requirements (Apple II, graphics pad, and joystick, paddle, or mouse), indicates its suitability for use in grades 11-12 for regular or gifted classes, and gives a time estimate (1-2 weeks). Accompanying materials include manual, student workbook, and teacher guide. Availability information includes preview policy (30 days), backup policy, and contact address. Part B contains the evaluation criteria in eight categories; reviewer ratings appear as yes, somewhat, no, and not applicable, with explanatory comments. Part C summarizes the evaluation. The program received yes ratings for student interaction, work behaviors, and application programs; and somewhat for subject matter, technical presentation, and documentation. A good introduction to computer-assisted design, the program takes patience to learn; it is difficult to set accurately scaled drawings and to print. The program is recommended as a supplement to existing courses. (SK)
